Spicy Moon is a total gem. From the moment you step in, the chilled vibes and great music set the perfect mood. The Chopped Cheese Spring Rolls are an absolute must—crispy, savory, and the dipping sauce? Incredible. The Dane Noodles are packed with fiery flavor, and the General Tso's Mushrooms have the perfect crunch with a juicy, umami punch.
What really stood out, though, was the service. Sayeed was friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. The whole experience left me thinking, I might need to relocate just to have access to this place more often.
Highly recommend this spot — you won’t regret it!

I got the vegetable fried rice with added “chicken” made spicy and it was so good! I loved the flavors, it tasted perfectly balanced and spiced. One of the better meals i have had in New York.

Fantastic vegan restaurant with generous portions and warm, welcoming service. We came here for a celebratory dinner and truly enjoyed the experience. The food was hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious.

I used to frequent this location back in 2022 and the food was pretty good then, but since then the portion sizes have shrunk to half of what they used to be, the flavors are pretty bland and weirdly sweet (as a Sichuanese vegan person I think I can judge this), and the prices are ridiculous (you can get the same thing you get here for $30 for better quality in Chinatown for at most $8). For a tiny bowl of noodles and wonton soup, that should be pretty cheap. We also got a drink and it was way too sugary and unappetizing. Finally, maybe this is just personal preference but the atmosphere itself had kind of consumerist/pop culture-y/gentrification vibes and obviously directed towards clueless people who don’t know where to find better Chinese food. I still appreciate this place & chain as a vegan but I believe I have to be harsh in order for it to improve. Until then I probably won’t be going back…

Please beware of the ridiculous tip calculation here! I had a lunch special here, $20 cost including tax, but their calculation showed ‘20% tip - $7’. How? Because they calculate tip based on menu prices of regular size dishes, even though lunch specials have smaller portions and discounted rates. Be careful before you hit the automatically calculated tip here - they’re trying to rob y’all!

Walking in alone, I was blessed by such good energy from the hostess Kaydeen. She accommodated my complicated seating needs, and made me feel welcomed. I ordered half of the menu to taste with a friend of mine, and every dish was made exceptionally well. The Dan Dan noodles weren't as spicy as I expected, but just enough to be an enjoyable spicy dish. The rest of the staff was also nice and welcoming, but Kaydeen went so above and beyond, I'd come back for just her! Such a wonderful experience. Highly recommend.

This was hands down one of the worst dining experiences I’ve ever had. The food was not just disappointing, it was borderline unbearable. Every dish was drowning in oil and loaded with an overwhelming amount of spice that masked any actual flavor. Instead of enjoying my meal, I left with heartburn and an upset stomach that lasted the rest of the night.
To make matters worse, everything seemed to be overloaded with MSG. The aftereffects were awful — a pounding headache and that “foggy” feeling that no one wants after eating. It felt less like dinner and more like a chemistry experiment gone wrong.
If you value your health, your taste buds, or even just a comfortable night’s sleep, avoid this place at all costs.
I can't imagine a better place than this for a vegan spice lover, I had the fried tofu bun, dry pepper drumsticks and chopped cheese spring roll leaving me stuffed but I couldn't bring myself to leave a bite behind. Service and atmosphere was fantastic too

Foods are delicious. Favorites are salt and pepper tofu and Dan Dan noodles. I practically order them every time I go here
